Famiware Soy Sauce Dish Ceramic Dipping Bowls Set of 6

These six bowls are microwave and dishwasher safe, the pack says. They do not go in the oven. Use them for soy sauce, dipping sauces, sides, or small servings. The 16-ounce capacity is generous for a dipping bowl, which is the point: you fill it once and do not have to keep refilling.

The trade-off is the weight and the fragility. Stack them two high at most; the unglazed foot ring will mark the glaze on the bowl below. And the rim will chip if knocked against a sink or another dish. That is the nature of dense, vitrified stoneware: it holds heat, it holds a lot, and it asks for a careful hand.
